Should you waive your Loan Contingency? | Housing Market 2021

We’ve been talking about contingencies for the last couple of videos. Today, let’s talk about the third one and arguably the most critical one if you’re applying for a loan—the loan contingency.

I’ve been seeing this conversation pop up on Reddit, in the comments section on YouTube, in Instagram, all over the place, and I think it’s really important to understand, especially if you’re going to jump into this really hot market. The financing or the loan contingency is a very important piece, especially with some of the volatility we’re experiencing right now in the mortgage world.

Buy a house | Is now a good time to buy a house?

Is it a good time to buy a house? I HATE that question!

Is the state of California really going to buy foreclosures? Well, according to this Senate Bill 1079? NO.

I’ve recently seen this headline about a recently passed Senate Bill 1079 or “The Homes for Homeowners, not Corporations” bill. It has gotten a lot of flak online, and in YouTube world, especially. But frankly, I just don’t see it. Maybe I’m missing something? Nonetheless, today, I want to talk about what this bill says, what it’s going to do, and how it affects us here in the East Bay in our real estate, transacting world. Let’s get started.

Foreclosure Auction California | What is a Foreclosure?

Foreclosure Auction California | What is a Foreclosure?

With all this talk about mortgage forbearance and foreclosures being kicked out in another six months, I think it’s time to talk about what a foreclosure actually is, how long they take, and what you should be really aware of when you’re hearing about all this mortgage forbearance that’s being added to our foreclosure and real estate world.

Mortgage Forbearance and Foreclosure Moratorium EXTENDED

Mortgage Forbearance and Foreclosure Moratorium EXTENDED

February 16, 2021– a day that will live in infamy forever. Now, it’s not that big of a deal. However, if you’re going to be in the real estate market, it is definitely something you need to know about. On that day, President Biden has officially extended the mortgage forbearance and foreclosure moratorium. Today, let’s talk about why it is important.
